Ebay/Paypal/Retrieve arrgghh help!

[lucylocket69]

Right well here goes!
I've been on ebay and had a paypal account for a good couple of years now. I've always bought, never sold. But now I want to sell some things...here's where I get confused!
When I sell, and want them to pay by paypal, how do I retrieve their money from paypal and get it into my bank account?!?!
Slighty confused as obviously don't want to be out of pocket on my first one!!

Many thanks, and please use simple computer language for me haha TIA x

There is an option on your paypal account page which says 'withdraw funds'.

Click on that and follow the instructions ~ you need to have bank account funding to do this...do you usually pay by debit or credit card?

It usually takes around 4-5 days for the money to hit your account, and there is no fee besides the original paypal payment fee unless you withdraw less than �50 ~ they charge you 25p under that amount.

You simply log into you paypal acount and press on the transfer money and follow the instructions and it will transfer to your bank account.

But it does take around 5 days to show on your bank account.

But It is usual practise for the seller to send the item out as soon as you have recieved the payment and not wait the 5 days until it shows on your account Most people do and I always have.
Unless of course you gey some plank asking if the could pay you more and then you send money on to there long lost dousin in outer essex or something.
